Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

So has anyone else been watching the recent TV adaptation of the Jojo's manga over at Crunchyroll? It's being done by a new(ish) production studio made up of several ex-Gonzo employees and they're evidently adapting the entire run in the same order as the comics, starting with Phantom Blood. They're currently a little over halfway through Stardust Crusaders and it's all suitably ultra-fabulous (and of course completely batshit insane).

I'm digging the opening/closing credits for each series. The theme for Phantom Blood is right out of late 70s/early 80s anime:

Edit: Who fansubs anything with a borderless black font? What an asshole.

It takes a few episodes to get going, and the entire first part is played fairly straight, but all bets are off once you hit Battle Tendency (episode 10 of the TV series, I think). What's rad is that they've left more or less all of the quirks of the manga intact, from the written onomatopoeia to Speedwagon's ridiculously overwrought narration.
